Looking at venues for a contest and have no idea how to calculate sq footage space needed for such an event.
Ive seen stage recommendations for like 6 meter by 4 meter. So around 250 sq foot. Generally booths for vendors would be like 10’x10’ so that’s easy like 100sq foot per booth let’s assume I have 6 sponsored vendors that’s 600sqft
Generally seated venues calculate about 8sq ft per person and standing 10sq ft so I guess for a yoyo contest at least 10 sq ft to be safe even if there is seating. If we assume 100 people show up that’s about 1000 sq ft
I could also I guess assume we need practice space so maybe another 12sq ft per person competing and I have no idea how many but let guess maybe 20-40 people participate. So let’s assume another 500 sqft
So is my guesstimate like 2,500 sq feet to run a contest rounding up a tad and making vague assumptions based on other contests in my region?
Not sure if more is needed or if I’m thinking too hard but trying to plan things and have no idea how to calculate space needed for a room full of folks throwing around yo-yos.
Any thoughts, experiences or insights are welcome.
